Proximal Femur Fractures Without a Traction Table

Master proximal femur fracture surgery, a procedure that can now be optimized without a traction table. This training offers a practical immersion in a method that allows free manipulation of fragments, avoiding reduction and positioning obstacles, applicable in any hospital with a conventional table.

Training Focus:

• Treatment of proximal femur fractures without a traction table.
• Free manipulation of fragments during surgery.
• Optimization of reduction and positioning.
• Application of the technique in any hospital with a conventional table.

Detailed Content:

• Patient and Table Positioning: Learn how to configure a conventional split table, removing the contralateral side for image intensifier access. Position the contralateral limb in a gynecological stirrup (90° hip flexion and external rotation) and the operative limb free and extended.
• Image Intensifier (C-Arm) Optimization: Ensure clear space under the table for C-Arm movement. Position the base near the contralateral leg for quality lateral images, ensuring visualization of the femoral head, neck, and shaft for alignment.
• Operational Advantages: This positioning is simple, fast, and reproducible anywhere. It facilitates adduction of the limb for guidewire insertion and allows the surgeon to use minimally invasive clamps and maneuvers to maintain fragment alignment, with the assistance of an assistant.

Included Material:

• Detailed PDF: A complete didactic document describing the practical and reproducible method for operating on proximal femur fractures without the use of a traction table.
